Samsung Slammed Over Alleged Child Labor in China

HEG Electronics, a Chinese company that assembles devices for Samsung Electronics, has been accused of hiring children and forcing employees to work excessive hours, according to China Labor Watch. The China Labor Watch report alleges that seven children under the age of 16 were found to be working at the HEG factory, which makes Samsung phones and DVD players. The child workers were reportedly only paid 70 percent as much as adult workers. The report also said that HEG employees working the 11-hour night shift were only granted 40 minutes of break time.
